Here it is ! The flux capacitor from back to the Future (more square).
It's an alarm clock and once the alarm goes off, it randomly plays sounds from the BTTF soundtrack.
I provide everything to make it.
How to use:

Step 3: Soldering RGB Led
Just slide the led inside the part.
You have to put the "IN" toward the outside.
Solder the 3 RGB together (see wiring diagram).
Step 4: Assemble the Coils and Diffusors
You'll see that I've put numbers on the coals, the "1" will be on the up left, the "2" right, the "3" down.
Glue the coals, the diffusors on the plate.
Step 5: Solder the Display
Solder four wires to the display.
Step 6: Solder MP3 Player
Solder the wires to the DFplayer and connect the speaker.
Step 7: Solder the Buttons
Solder the wires to the "Hour" "Minute" "Setup/Stop" buttons.
The wires (yellow and orange) have to be connected to the ESP32 first.
Step 8: Set the Plexi
Set the plexi in place.
Step 9: Set the Display

Screw the "setup/stop" button.
Step 11: Display Frame
Put the display frame on the display

Solder the wires 32 and 33.

Step 14: Solder the RGB Led
Solder the "IN" of the first RGB led to the "4" output of the ESP32.
Step 15: Place the Led Plate
You'll see some little lugs.
All you have to do is spread the case a little to place the plate.
Step 16: Buttons Hour and Minute
Screw the "hour" and "minute" buttons.
Solder the wires 32 and 33 to the "NO" pins of the buttons.
Step 17: Connect MP3 Player
Solder the wires of the MP3 Player to the 17 and 16 pins of the esp32.
Step 18: Solder the Display and Setup/stop Button
Step 19: Set the Speaker
Set the speaker in the back plate.
Step 20: VCC and GND
I used WAGO terminals to connect every 5v/VCC together and every GND together.
Step 21: Send the Code
